Recent reviews of Independent Living in Ridgewood, FL
Anthem Lakes in Atlantic Beach, FL
4.7

It is a lovely community with good sized rooms. It is a nice place with well cared for grounds. The fees were a little more than we expected. Anthem Lakes is a community that is on the newer side and has been around for about 5 years.

Camellia at Deerwood in Jacksonville, FL
4.8

The staff at Camellia at Deerwood are all very attentive, friendly, helpful. I definitely recommend this facility to others.

Starling at San Jose in Jacksonville, FL
4.6

Overall, our experience has been good here at this facility. We're having a few difficulties at the present time, but we are working through them. The food is very good and includes a great variety. The staff is very cooperative. They've had some staff turnover, including the head nurse. A lot of the Aides seem to rotate also for whatever reason. But I do understand that burnout is real, especially in this line of work. The young lady in charge of the Memory Care unit is amazing, but she's working a lot and doing her best to cover for the staff shortages. Continuity of service is so important, especially with Memory Care. So that makes it hard. The cleaning lady is amazing and always on top of things. She's a very sweet lady and has been here for a long time. They have nursing staff on staff 24 hours a day. The outside Medical Providers come to the facility two days a week. The activities are varied, but available if the residents choose to participate. I think I would recommend this facility to family and friends. Based on our research and tours, this facility seems to be the best one in the area for Memory Care.
